Hello there,

Myself and a group of friends are travelling to St Gervias in France in December this year.

We have looked into advance purchase of our ski passes, but are getting a little confused as we have never been snowboarding in france before! We have noticed there are a few diffent passes we can purchase e.g. Evasion Mont Blanc, Mont Blanc Unlimited etc etc. Can anyone recommend which pass would be the best? We are beginner to intermediate level.

Also, we are hiring a car so we can travel if necessary.

Thank you!

Hi, Welcome to the forum :D I've been to St Gervais several times, and you are spot on with the confusing choice of passes. I would suggest that you all put the money for passes aside and wait until you get there to see what the local conditions are like. If there is plenty of snow you'll find enough to keep you busy in and around St Gervais/Megeve, as it's quite extensive.

As you'll have the use of a car you may want to check out the surrounding area, so you might even want to buy day tickets choosing your resort based on that day's weather.
